"The duo's newest works, some of which will be shown in Mumbai, are  
photos "shot inside" a game called Half-Life. It's been one of their  
tougher challenges. "Every shot was taken while killing aliens,  
struggling with radioactive traps or while escaping helicopters," said  
Franco. "Sometimes I had to go through the whole scheme over and over  
for hours, because every time I was trying to stand still and make the  
photo, some goddamn alien was trying to eat my brain." Read the Time
